Jeff Bezos is reportedly exploring plans to raise up to $100 billion for a new investment fund focused on transforming manufacturing through artificial intelligence.
The proposed fund would target companies in sectors such as semiconductors, defense and aerospace, with the goal of improving efficiency and accelerating automation using AI technologies.
According to reports, Bezos has begun discussions with major global asset managers and sovereign wealth funds, including meetings in the Middle East, to secure backing for the initiative.
The effort aligns with broader ambitions tied to Project Prometheus, a separate AI-focused venture aimed at advancing engineering and industrial production systems. That project is also seeking additional funding and has attracted high-profile leadership.
If realized, the fund would represent one of the largest bets yet on applying AI to traditional industrial sectors, signaling a shift toward deeper integration of advanced technology in manufacturing.
